Listen "73: Why The CDC Messaging Changed"
Episode Synopsis
For almost two years we've been told the goal was to prevent as many people as possible from getting. For many, the only acceptable number was zero cases. We were told that preventing even one death was worth almost any cost. Now Fauci says "just about everybody" will get it. Now, the CDC says that the quarantine should be shortened to 5 days out of the blue. For many, these changes can be explained away by the emergence of Omicron. But the reality is that these policy and messaging changes are the result of politics, not science.
